Hi again.

Note the following

Series[ArcCosh[x], {x, 0, 11}, Assumptions -> x =E2=88=88 Reals]
SeriesData[x, 0, {(I/2)*Pi, -I, 0, -I/6, 0, (-3*I)/40, 0, (-5*I)/112,
0, (-35*I)/1152, 0, (-63*I)/2816}, 0, 12, 1]

ArcCosh[x] + O[x]^12
ArcCosh[x] + SeriesData[x, 0, {}, 12, 12, 1]

But applying first the TrigToExp function we get

TrigToExp[ArcCosh[x]] + O[x]^12
SeriesData[x, 0, {(I/2)*Pi, -I, 0, -I/6, 0, (-3*I)/40, 0, (-5*I)/112,
0, (-35*I)/1152, 0, (-63*I)/2816}, 0, 12, 1]

Dimitris
